TELLY DIVA: Affable, beautiful, sweet and stylish Krystle D’Souza

[Article for one of the Fashion Magazine]

She is currently essaying the role of Jeevika in Cinevistaas’ Ek Hazaron Mein Meri Behna Hain on Star Plus. Counted among the most stylish television Bahus she is proudly ruling the hearts of tons of Bachelors. She talked in an elegant demeanor when Perfect Woman’s correspondent K Himaanshu Shukla called her...

She always wanted to be an Air-Hostess but destiny was planning something else for her. She started her acting career with Balaji Telefilms’ Kahe Naa Kahe. “I wanted to be in a profession which had nothing to do with studies; the profession where I could groom myself. I always wanted to work somewhere I could just dress up lavishly, do make up and look beautiful. Thus I thought of being an Air-Hostess since childhood. Also many of my cousins and aunts have been into this profession so I always dreamt of being an air hostess only.”

“Once I was wandering randomly in my college campus; suddenly one guy approached me for the audition for Balaji Telefilms’ new show. I still remember the experience like a fresh incident. I auditioned in a vanity van and luckily I got selected for their upcoming show ‘Kahe Na Kahe’.  I found myself fortunate enough to debut with Balaji’s show. Ekta is a magnificent individual and Balaji is like a second home to me. There has been no looking back after ‘Kahe Na Kahe’.”

Kahe Naa Kahe used to air on 9x channel and Krystle essayed the role of Kinjal.  After that, she did many shows such as Kyaa Dill Mein Hain, Aahat, Kasturi, Kis Desh Mein Hai Meraa Dil and Baat Hamari Pakki Hai. She took a break after Baat Hamari Pakki Hai and went to Canada.  Her parents stay there, so she decided to take a break from acting and spend some quality time with them. When she returned back she bagged the plum role of “Jeevika” in Cinevistaas’ show ‘Ek Hazaron Mein Meri Behna Hain’.

Talking about her current onscreen character Jeevika, she said, “Jeevika is an out and out a highly positive and simple Indian girl who loves her sister deeply from her heart. She has been a mother to her sister so she can go to any extent to save her baby sister Maanvi, who is currently suffering from Cancer.”

Krystle is quite similar to her onscreen character Jeevika.  Just like Jeevika, she is caring and loving. Both are highly imbibed with high principles and good values and have deference for their family.  Jeevika is shy whereas Krystle is extrovert. Jeevika is quite when it comes to decision making while Krystle takes a stand for her thoughts and expresses her feelings wide openly.

Talking about the future plans, she said, “I am doing a daily soap and right now my focus is entirely on it. Off course I also want to act in Bollywood and I will surely do films when I get good opportunity, but right now I am concentrating only on Television. I think it’s the best medium to connect with the masses. I will never leave television for Bollywood afterall television gave me the identity which I am enjoying today. My preference is television and it will be forever.”

Rapid Fire with Krystle...

Krystle’s dream role...
For me there is nothing as such which I would want to call as dream role. I started with a positive role, did a grey scale role (in Kis Des Mein Hai Mera Dil), did a haunted role (in Aahat) and a glamorous role (in Baat Humari Pakki Hai) so you see I have done a variety of roles. There is no genre of roles that I have not tried. I think ‘Jeevika’ is my dream role because it has brought me immense exposure.

Krystle’s dream actor to work with…
I go weak on my knees when I see Hrithik Roshan on screen. Ranbir Kapoor is my crush, my love.  I want to work with them.

Krystle’s fitness mantra…
Maintaining your body is a lot of hard work, especially for working professionals like me. I shoot round the clock so I don’t really get the time to go to the gym. I do cardio exercises to lose fat and practice yoga every day. I also do Vajraasana for 20 minutes after every meal. To stay fit one should not starve and eat at regular intervals in small amounts.

Krystle’s beauty mantra…
Smile smile and smile. It makes u beautiful. Since they say it’s contagious it will make a lot of people around you beautiful too. The person dressed up poorly and without any makeup but is smiling would appear more beautiful to me rather than a person dressed up lavishly but is not smiling. Other than smile being natural is the most important beauty mantra. A nice shade of gloss, mascarra and my smile and I am all beautiful.

Krystle’s fashion funda…
Fashion to me is clothes that look good, fit well, suit your body type and are very comfortable. I pick my clothes after putting lots of interest in it and I invest a lot of money also in my clothes.

When Krystle is free she loves to…
 Earlier when I used to be free I loved to dance, paint and sing but since now I hardly get time to be called as free; as soon as I am free I either run to a spa for self relaxation or I go shopping. During free time on sets I try covering up my sleeps.

The real Krystle is...
The real Krystle is an ordinary girl who had a very cheerful and pampered yet normal childhood, a bubbly teenage and a hard working adulthood. Though I am a princess but still I dream of living the life of an actual royal princess.

Krystle's message for our female readers...
 Don't ever think that you are weak. Now women walk matching shoulder to shoulder with men, so why to feel weak. We women are strong enough to live successfully. I think women can become perfect if she owns a kind soul. Love yourself and enjoy life to the fullest.
